Exclusive: An Informer Told the FBI What Docs Trump Was Hiding, and Where
Newsweak ^

Posted on 08/10/2022 10:28:47 AM PDT by Tench_Coxe

The raid on Mar-a-Lago was based largely on information from an FBI confidential human source, one who was able to identify what classified documents former President Trump was still hiding and even the location of those documents, two senior government officials told Newsweek.

(snip)

The senior Justice Department source says that Garland was regularly briefed on the Records Act investigation, and that he knew about the grand jury and what material federal prosecutors were seeking. He insists, though, that Garland had no prior knowledge of the date and time of the specific raid, nor was he asked to approve it. "I know it's hard for people to believe," says the official, "but this was a matter for the U.S. Attorney and the FBI."

FBI director Christopher Wray ultimately gave his go-ahead to conduct the raid, the senior Justice official says. "It really is a case of the Bureau misreading the impact."

If Wray conducts such a raid without telling Garland, he should be fired on the spot.

This is amazing. A former President is raided by the FBI and nobody in charge of the FBI, DOJ, or Executive Office knows anything about it?

"A raid happened...."

“hard for people to believe” Uhh, yeah, ‘cause y’all are a lying bunch of DBags. Have been since Obama got into office and worse since.

No. Nothing y’all have to say is believable except to CNN addicts. Your credibility is dead.

Back in the late 1700’s the guns would already be out.

Bring back the guillotine!

Ever throw paper into a toilet like that? It floats until it gets pushed down. Also, once it gets pushed, it tends to float on it’s side, not flat. Also, who the heck rips paper up like that and then DOESN’T flush? It was completely staged.

Of course it was staged. That's not the point. The FBI, following the "Crossfire Hurricane Doctrine", is more than happy to use staged, wholly manufactured and knowingly falsified "evidence" as long as doing so forwards the cause of railroading Trump.

if that is true, why did they roam all over the place and apparently randomly took documents? It should have been a surgical strike, not a 10-hour search fest that included rummaging through Melania’s clothes (and probably trying them on, the perverts).

Yes, they were in Melania's underwear drawer. The mole was certain of it!

If we’re going Third World, the informer should be investigated for spying, and then shot.

Supposedly the “Informant” told them there was stuff in the safe which was totally EMPTY..so if that was the case, sounds like someone made the feds look like total fools

Trump did that before in the White House -- he told specific info to various individuals and tracked it to find out who was leaking to the media.

"No reasonable federal prosecutor would indict the secretary of state (Hillary Clinton) for mishandling classified information or for maintaining a private server to avoid federal records laws" - James Comey, DOJ.

Just Wow......

"Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime”

Lavreniy Beria.

This is about, politically, assassinating PDJT, making sure that he can't run in 2024.

They'll get an obama or clinton appointed judge and a DC jury and convict him of something.

Even if he is convicted, appeals and wins, it will be too late for 2024. Pure Banana Republic.

So of course they have undercover agents on him now. Probably a couple of workers at Mar-A-Lago.

If he "told" someone, the implication is that it was not merely overheard by an individual, or if it was produced via electronic spying, which is more highly likely.

He is unlikely to have "told" his groundskeepers or household help. That leaves:

His personal valet; again, unlikely.

Someone from his legal team.

Someone from his political staff.

A "trusted" personal friend.

His Secret Service agents.

It’s not enough to decapitate the FBI. The whole organization has to be scrapped.

f that’s the case, why did it take them 9 hours to find what they already knew they were looking for, and where it was? The FBI perverts obviously couldn’t resist sifting through the First Lady’s undies and clothing.”

They had to try on all her panties and high heels to determine which ones each agent wanted to steal.

Melania should SUE them for a whole new wardrobe because that FBI scum has contaminated hers.

I know, right? Were they wearing PPE's when they tossed and sniffed her lingerie?

Except this is beyond tone deaf because who the hell would even bother with a warrant and a confidential informant in a nothing documents dispute?

The far left crowd who finally pushed Garland into "doing something."
